Map of Europe during the most recent Ice Age (the last glacial maximum) - 20,000 years ago.

Made with ArcGIS, Photoshop, Illustrator & Blender. Raw image is roughly 12K in size. #geology #paleoart #sciart #GIS #maps ( #PrehistoricPlanet !!whoo)

Been working on a Pleistocene ice age map for the last week, and this gets announced in the middle of it? Can't wait!

yup, this why many of us here in Sweden walk on fine post-glacial marine sediment, which can trigger landslides relatively easily.

Map of the Yoldia Sea - the Baltic some 11,500 years ago.

Being set in the early Holocene, this is by far the youngest paleo-map I've made so far (TBH, as a bit of a break from somewhat heavier projects.)

maybe we shouldn't act as if paleoart is on par with the invention of the bloody wheel xD

anyways, this short film is absolutely marvelous

Ok… so the cat is out of the bag and I can FINALLY start talking about this. I just confirmed with Tim I can say that I did a lot of concept art, like this baby Spinosaurus, for the new docuseries #SurvivingEarth coming out in 2026!

So excited for you guys to see this!

You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

the pliensbachian/toarcian extinctions as well, and some early-K events. Perhaps the mosasaurs just ate them [don't quote me on that]

well, it's one thing to setup a shot in a controlled studio environment, quite another to be on the slope of a volcano looking at a tripod's spirit level.
